I think there's been a pushback on this view lately, that this is only one factor to consider or that the studies leading to this kind of conclusion are flawed?
* ApoB or LDL cholesterol
* Blood pressure
* Inflammation (hs-CRP)
* Lipoprotein(a) (strongest hereditary risk factor)
* HbA1c (metabolic health)
* eGFR (kidneys)
Modern cardiovascular risk calculators like PREVENT take all of biomarkers factors and give you a 30-year forecast of your risk of heart disease.
